I'd love to see Bloomberg elected, but the Deep South ain't voting for him...
It would be really funny to see a Rudy/HRC/Bloomberg race. The bowels ot the Bible Belt would lose their fucking minds.
For the first time in this country, being the Black guy running for Prez is being the least interesting of the bunch.

so you are going to rely on nuanced understanding to make sure the next generation of potential homicide bombers doesn't take the wrong message? If you are that optimistic today, I bet you were one happy MF pre-9/11.

Suggesting it's patriotic or noble to shut your mouth when you think someone is doing something wrong is possibly the stupidest proposition anyone's ever farted onto this board. I don't blame you alone; others have done it.

considering we've had 40-some odd ex-presidents, and all but 1 have agreed with me, I'll hold tight to my cards.

You're the one who brought it up. And Sebby disagrees with you. So have it out with him.

The only people hanging on Jimmy Carter's every utterance are the conservatives who like to get agitated and can't find their local mall, where they could go to kvetch about the kind of music kids listen to these days. The notion that potential homicide bombers are paying the kind of close attention to Jimmy Carter's bon mots required to misconstrue them in the way that Diane has is just silly.

Actually, that's wrong. But you're rolling, so why should anyone stop you?

there are worldwide riots and dozens killed when a simple editor chooses to publish a cartoon. you don't think an ex-president can gain an audience?

Diane doesn't care for him, but I really don't think she's about to riot.
